1970 Dodge Super Bee in Plum Crazy Purple. WM23 VIN means a true Super Bee powered by a 383 Holley 4-bbl, 3-speed 727 heavy duty automatic, and originally painted B5 blue with a white Vinyl top. White/black bucket seats, white interior door frames, fender mounted turn signals and center console with woodgrain and shifter are all factory options.

The car was also built with the 8.75 rear end with 3.23 open gears and 11" drums. Now it's Plum Crazy Purple from top to bottom and has some tasteful upgrades like Rally style alloy wheels (brand new), Ram charger hood, hood pins, white transverse rear stripe, painted front and rear bumpers and chromed taillight trim panel and passenger side mirror. The paint is sensationally good with no orange peel and is soft and silky to the touch! The bottom of the car is just as nice – black, but very detailed and free of scale or rust.

It’s clearly gone through a rotisserie restoration. Glass is all good, door seals and weather stripping is new and even the exterior badges are excellent. The grilles and headlights surrounds are new parts.

The interior also has been upgraded with custom white vinyl bucket seats with matching purple piping, and Dakota Digital gauges including digital tach/clock, digital screen and all new gauges in each pod. Its all very nice and clean. Certainly, a mix of old and new parts, but very nice nonetheless.

A new cover for the console is on the way, but the rest of the interior is very nice. Under the hood you’re looking at the numbers matching 383!!! Now with an Edelbrock high-rise intake, and Headman Headers with true dual exhaust and chromed tips out back. Electronic ignition, Power steering and power brakes (4-wheel drums) have been added, which are a nice touch.

There’s even a Mopar Battery cover and hoses are era correct. Think of this car as everything it was from new, with the addition of era correct options that would have been nice to have on the fender tag! The trunk is painted body color and features a trunk mat, but currently there is no spare tire or jack. This is also one of the nicest driving Mopar’s we’ve had.

Old cars can have the feeling of being worn out, but this one drives and feels like new. Steering is tight and all the switch gear, buttons, switches and the like all have that new feeling! It’s tuned well and runs great. Very well done car with lots going for it and high attention to detail during the restoration! The odometer is digital and reads 74,000 miles, which we assume is correct for the car.
